What We Love: This Minnesota cottage offers a family a beautifully decorated home surrounded by woods and idyllic views of the lake. From the charming exterior facade to the focal point stone fireplace in the great room, the craftsmanship of this home is impeccable. We are especially loving the four-season screened porch with its hanging daybed and comfortable furnishings, perfect for lounging and entertaining.

Above: Fresh breezes off the lake can be enjoyed through the screened porch and into the great room thanks to sliding glass doors that disappear into the wall. A floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace is the focal point of this space and keeps the room feeling toasty during the winter months.
Above: This four-season porch is flooded with the warmth of autumn’s low-rising sun, perfectly nestled beside the kitchen—the ideal setting for a tranquil weekend at the lake.
